Last night I watched the 1946 classic Whistle Stop with Ava Gardner and George Raft. I wanted to like it, but it falls short of being a true Film Noir classic. There was little to no background on Ava's Character Mary and why she came back to her hometown. I did enjoy Ava's performance and good looks. Her performance outshines every other actor in the movie. George Raft’s performance just didn’t connect with me. He seemed very stiff and his chemistry with Ava was lacking. I do appreciate the film for what it is, but it could have been so much more. Overall I’m glad I watched it.
